/*
 *  IMPORTANT NOTE.
 *  This file contains XTOS parameters that may be modified
 *  according to needs.  HOWEVER, any modifications are NOT
 *  supported.  Handling of parameters other than the defaults
 *  provided in the original version of this file are for
 *  illustrative and educational purposes only.  If you do
 *  change the parameters here-in (which requires rebuilding
 *  XTOS), please verify the resulting code extensively
 *  before even considering its use in production code.
 *
 *  To rebuild XTOS, see instructions in the Xtensa System Software
 *  Reference Manual.  The following sequence is no longer supported.
 *
 *	cd <config_dir>/xtensa-elf/src/handlers
 *	xt-make clean
 *	xt-make
 *	xt-make install
 *
 *  (Note: the last step installs the modified XTOS in *ALL*
 *  LSPs that normally include XTOS.  You may prefer copying
 *  the generated files to your own custom LSP instead.  Or
 *  better yet, also make a copy of all source files and maintain
 *  them somewhere completely separate -- which may require
 *  minor adjustments to the makefile.)
 *
 *  PERFORMANCE TUNING:
 *  To slightly improve performance of interrupt dispatching,
 *  you can do some combination of the following:
 *	- change XTOS_SUBPRI to zero
 *	- change XTOS_SUBPRI_GROUPS to zero
 *	- change XTOS_SUBPRI_ORDER to XTOS_SPO_ZERO_HI
 *	- change XTOS_DEBUG_PC to zero
 *	- change XTOS_INT_FAIRNESS to zero
 *	- change XTOS_CNEST to zero
 *  There are non-trivial trade-offs in making such changes however,
 *  such as loss of support (see important note above), loss of
 *  interrupt scheduling fairness, loss of ability to traceback
 *  interrupt handlers across interrupted code when debugging them,
 *  loss of supported for nested C functions, etc.

 *  Lower LOCKLEVEL to XCHAL_EXCM_LEVEL for improved interrupt latency
 *  if you don't register C handlers for high-priority interrupts and your
 *  high-priority handlers don't touch INTENABLE nor virtual priorities.
 *
 *  XTOS_LOCKLEVEL is less meaningful but still relevant if XEA2 and SUBPRI is zero,
 *  ie. if INTENABLE doesn't get virtualized (XTOS_VIRTUAL_INTENABLE not set);
 *  in this case, it is the interrupt level at which INTENABLE accesses are guarded,
 *  so that interrupt handlers up to this level can safely manipulate INTENABLE.
